From b9aef63aca772a25ffcfaedf4bd29fb36b919a93 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Damien Le Moal Date: Tue, 4 Jun 2019 16:23:40 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] block: force select mq-deadline for zoned block devices In most use cases of zoned block devices (aka SMR disks), the mq-deadline scheduler is mandatory as it implements sequential write command processing guarantees with zone write locking. So make sure that this scheduler is always enabled if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED is selected.
